Title
Medieval copper alloy buckle
Description
English: An incomplete copper alloy strap link (also known as a strap distributor), of medieval date. It comprises a cast square or sub-rectangular plate, measuring 17mm x 16mm, with a central cruciform aperture, which has very slightly flaring arms. Where each arm meets the rectangular frame there is a sunken field about 4mm wide, between 1mm and 2mm lower than the plate corners. Each of the raised corners has a shaped top, with an angled bevel perhaps making a quatrefoil around the cross aperture. It has a green and dark brown patina.

These strap links come with their corners in a variety of shapes (compare PUBLIC-3F6CF3, NMS-A43F80 and BERK-78B7F3 for examples). See SUR-077856 for an example with some of the strap terminals attached.
